Hainsfarth (Swabian: Hoasfarth) is a municipality in the district of Donau-Ries in Bavaria in Germany.
From as early as the 13th century until 1941, Hainsfarth was home to a sometimes large Jewish community, accounting for up to 40 percent of the village's population in 1810. From 1710 to 1938 the village also had a functioning synagogue, which was partly destroyed by the Nazis but renovated and reopened in 1996.[3] The village also has an intact Jewish cemetery, which was desecrated during the Nazi era but later restored.[4]
